We had the top 8th defense to end the season. Slice it up any way you want it, pull out any sample size you like and in the end, 100 out of 100 times, you'll end up with the same Def RTG when you look at the forest, not the trees. My statement was based on the final RTG. Not the best sample size, and not the worst. had I pulled out the best week, then it would be misleading, but I wasn't. There really isn't anything to argue here.

Oh, and when you look at the context I used the stat, there should be no doubt.

Blake never does a pump fake and then drive to the basket when he get's open from mid-range, that is going to be his next addition

We had a pretty good defense last year....

....until we started Chauncey Billups. For whatever reason, we weren't the same team.

Dudley 0 rebounds, 0 assists. Only 2 shots attempted.. He is null

Why does Blake think he's Karl Malone with that mid range game? He needs to work on a reliable post move. He's got to to play to his strengths. He's strong, fast, and can jump. Those abilities are clearly heightened more in the post as opposed to the mid range game. Makes no sense to me.

Looks like he decided the mid range wasn't working so he'd try the long range instead

Redick should have looked for the lob to Blake there, but he really could have made that layup. Asik is doing a very good job protecting the rim

LOL.

No, you are. This wasn't a "analyses" of patterns. This was me defending a factual statement that was called misleading. I honestly don't know how you came into this to tell you the truth. Anyway, enough of me using stats for now. Seems to open up a can of worms.

Our starters are playing really really good defense right now. Sucks that our bench will ruin everything. Our starters actually have a defensive rating of 98 or something like that.

There's Dudley's midrange shot. Everybody know's he hits from distance, but his midrange was top 10 in the league last year.

This is where last years bench comes in! Our starters exert all their energy trying to get the lead or tie it but don't have enough energy to sustain the lead! Last year we could....
